Indian American Republican Council: "The Tan Tax" Why Congress wants to tax you for trying to look Indian??

The blog for the group "Indian American Republican Council" is taking issue with Congress recent move to tax those who simply want a tan this winter.

UPS coined the famous phrase “what can Brown do for you?” signifying their leadership in the parcel delivery business. But according to Senate liberals, what ‘brown’ can actually do for you is get your taxes raised because a 10% tanning tax has been included in the “health care reform” bill to be voted on in the Senate. What’s the matter, don’t you remember seeing Senators negotiate the tax during live coverage on C-SPAN this past weekend?

The Administration campaigned on a slogan of “change you can believe in,” but seeing how things are going in Washington, we think it really should be changed to “change you can’t believe.” The President campaigned on the populist rhetoric of “it’s us versus them,” making it sound like he was championing the cause of the little guy against special interests.

But the Left is just as beholden to special interests as ever, voting on card check as payback to labor unions and trying to pass a government-run health care plan to appease government-loving Socialists from San Francisco. Yet, surgeons and Botox maker Allergan, Inc. successfully lobbied against a proposed 5% tax on Botox applications in the bill, leading to the new tanning tax. If this isn’t a classic example of a special interest group getting what they want, what is?
